Our first major content update for Path of Exile 2 introduces a new class, five new Ascendancy classes, huge expansions on character systems like Unique Item...
In typical poe fashion they are unrewarding and slow. They added dodge roll to a game and now I’m supposed to use it non stop. White mobs need to be ground down. And i get it, they wanted to slow shit down. They def did.
Ah, I see. Fait enough. Personally I enjoyed it. No point in making a different game just to have better graphics. PoE 1 is still there for those that don’t like the new one… and I’m looking forward to alternating between the 2, if they manage to find the pace which they promised.
I loved all the improvements to the gem system. Low lvl crafting felt good and the improvements, while quite small, we’re noticeable. It’s just a really bad pace for me. I never felt the dps ramp up at all. It never felt like i was killing anything faster or more efficiently and the “combos” while cool still involved just more clicking. I never felt like the game play improved. Just mechanics and graphics and polish.
I’m not a Souls person and i hated the extra hard mode they added to PoE1 so maybe the game just isn’t for me.

That looks fun…once you’ve hit 70th level after 20 hours really terrible grinding.
What makes the first 70 levels not fun for you?

It’s just so slow. The drop rate sucks, enemy’s have too much health by 30-40%. The bosses aren’t rewarding. Etc…
The whole game is grind for that first divine so you can buy a decent piece of gear.
I like the engine, I hate the tuning.
